Severus Snape x professor!slytherin!reader
Movie/book: Philosopher/Sorcererâs stone
================================
You were excited to come back to Hogwarts for teaching History of Magic. You were excited to meet your teachers, most of all your favourite, Professor Slughorn, the Potions Master and head of the Slytherin house.
On your first day you came to sit on the table with other professors, you saw familiar faces: Professor McGonagall, Hagrid, Madam Pomfrey and others. But you didnât see Professor Slughorn.
You asked Dumbledore:
"Whereâs professor Slughorn? Did he quit?"
"yes, like ten years ago, right after your graduation".
Oh, thatâs really sad, you thought. "Who is the Potion Master now then?"
"Severus Snape, he is a Slytherin too. Maybe you would hear about him when you were in school, he is four years older than you, maybe there were some school rumours about him that youâve heard of".
"I can barely remember my same-yearsâ names, i donât think i would remember him even if i did hear stuff".
"Severus is a great person deep inside, he just doesnât show it so often. I would suggest you to keep a good relationship with him. You may be going on some events together as the youngest teachers here."
You looked at the Potions Master. He had long black hair, dark eyes and pale skin. You turned back to Dumbledore. "Okay then, Iâll try."
At the lunch, you sat next to Severus. Unexpectedly, he talked to you. "So, you happen to be the new professor of History of Magic, am i right?"
"Yes, and you are professor Snape, if iâve been told correct.". He hummed.
"Dumbledore said that you are four years older than me so⌠youâre 31 and we happen to be the youn-"
Snape interrupted you. "well, so youâre 27. I thought you were older than me by your⌠appearance". You decided to not pay attention to his tease, because youâll be working together and you didnât wanna get in trouble.
The next day after lunch, Minerva asked all the professors to go to The Three Broomsticks to drink frozen butterbeer.
You were discussing with professor Flitwick and Snape about some work stuff, when Minerva approached you.
"Hello, would you like to go for some butterbeer on Saturday?"
You answered "Yeah, for sure, thatâll be lovely".
"Filius, Severus, what about you?".
"Iâm sorry, Minerva, but I have to do a lot of grading till next week." answered Flitwick.
Severus mumbled: "Drinking butterbeer at The Three Broomsticks Inn⌠disgusting thing to do as a professor.."
McGonagall replied "Oh, well, taking sluts at the Knockturn Alley is definitely better".
You tried hard not to laugh, but a light giggle escaped your mouth.
On Saturday, you came to the Three Broomsticks where you found professors McGonagall, Dumbledore and Sprout. They greeted you and you joined them. You were drinking and talking about some stuff. After a hour and a half, Snape came up to your table. "Sorry for coming late, i was.. choosing what to wear." Minerva looked at Severus and laughed silently. "Youâre wearing the same black suit that you wear everyday, Severus." He took a seat next to Albus and Pomona.
"Uhm so I began to say that when Minerva and me used to be youngâŚ" continued Dumbledore.
You get drunk quickly, so you got drunk from few cups of butterbeer. You began to fall asleep on the table.
"Y/N, are you okay?" Minerva asked concerned. You have already fell asleep.
"Albus, what should we do?"
Dumbledore looked at you for few seconds, then said "Severus, can you please help miss Y/L/N get to her chambers? They are in the dungeon too."
Snape looked at the headmaster, happy on the inside that he could finally leave that place. "Yeah." Severus casted "Wingardium Leviosa" and lifted you in the air, going with you to the dungeon.
Minerva mumbled "i tell you, someday this man will give mr. Filch trauma"
Soon you got in the dungeon, Severus unlocked the door to your chambers with the Alohomora spell and entered you bedroom. He slowly put you in your bed and covered you with a blanket, murmuring "hope you wonât remember that I have ever done this." and headed to his chambers.
In the morning, you woke up with a terrible headache, drank a glass of water and sat on your couch. You heard someone knocking on the door, and said "come in". Snape entered.
"is everything alright? Minerva asked me to check on you."
"yes, i think so. Uhm.. why are you checking on me if McGonagall could done this herself?"
Severus rolled his eyes and said "Because âI should keep a good relationship with you and be niceâ and stuff."
"Also, in the evening Dumbledore asked you to come to his office." Snape was heading to the door.
"Why? Did something bad happen?"
He turned back to you and replied: "Iâm not sure i can tell you, professor Y/L/N"
Severus left your chambers.
Later that day, you were going to Dumbledoreâs office. You heard Albus, Severus and Minerva talking:
"Albus, trust me, we should ask her to help us! She is a powerful witch that could protect it!"
"I agree with professor Dumbledore. She is too young for that, we could manage it ourselves."
"Severus, right now we need any defence possible. It is stupid to say that everything will be alright if we wonât increase the Stoneâs protection."
"SILENCE!" Shouted Dumbledore.
"She is here, professor." said Snape.
You entered Dumbledoreâs office. "Good evening. I came a bit earlier but didnât want to interrupt you."
Minerva smiled at you. "Hello, my dear. You should be wondering why youâre here."
Albus said: "well, you already know that the third floor corridor on the right hand is out of bounds. Let me tell you now why. Did you heard about the Philosopherâs Stone?"
"Yes. Turns any metal into pure gold and produces the Elixir of Life"
"So, to protect it we have put it in a chamber guarded by six enchantments and creatures, provided by the professors at Hogwarts: Pomona's web of Devil's Snare; Winged Keys, charmed by Filius Flitwick; a life-size board of Wizard's Chess, transfigured and animated by Minerva McGonagall; professor Quirrell's mountain troll; professor Snape's potion riddle and Hagrid's massive three-headed dog, Fluffy, defending the trap door through which the chamber is accessed."
"And why would that stone suddenly need that protection?" You asked.
Minerva answered you before Dumbledore could say anything. "We are afraid that The Dark Lord wants to rise again."
"And thatâs why he wants the Stone.."
Dumbledore said: "and we want you to help us protect it."
"Okay. I will think what i could do."
You left the office and headed to the library to do some research.
